What Our Students Say
Students from underrepresented minority groups with academic potential in math and sciences are identified in elementary and middle schools. Parents of MESA students are involved so that they become an integral part of the team that delivers critical services to their children. Parents attend orientations after which they sign an agreement with MESA to support the program at their school. Parental involvement is extremely important and an essential component to the success of the program.

The MESA program is one of the most rewarding programs I have been involved in during my life. Through the MESA
program I learned to become a stronger student, and it provided hand’s on learning experiences which to me was a huge success in leading me to become an engineer.

MESA not only teaches me new things through teamwork
and cooperation, but also helps me apply what I learn.
Elvia Castillo-Hernandez, Denver North High School
MESA is such a success that it encourages many students to
appreciate the wonderful world of mathematics, science and
engineering. MESA taught me how to work as a team.
Jothselyn Macias, Stellar Elementary School
MESA has made me realize that when I work hard on something that I really want, I will end up getting a reward for
all my hard work.
